Outsourcing, Mergers & Takeovers TUPE

TUPE is designed to protect you when the business in which you work for is sold or merged or your work is outsourced, passed from one contractor to another or taken back in-house. Key features for individuals are:

Your employment will transfer automatically (unless you object to being transferred).

The employer must give certain information to employee representatives which should be passed on to you (except in the case of micro employers).

An employer’s breach of process can lead to a penalty award of up to 90 days pay for every employee affected by the breach.

Excellent, very solution-focused and prepared to identify risks associated with each topic prior to advising upon the next course of action.

Thanks again… I would not be in this happy position without all your help

I have been extremely worried about my residency since the 'hiccup' during my last entry to U.K. I cannot reiterate my sense of relief after leaving your firm. Thank you.

We appreciate all you have done and would not hesitate to recommend you to others who have a need.
